I think any of us that are Amazon Prime members would agree that shopping on Amazon, their speedy delivery schedules, and their immense product availability speaks for itself! So, why do people still not trust the fashion and beauty side of this business?

Today, we want to share our favorite products to order through Amazon…and some that may surprise you! Plus, we offer a few tips to look out for when you do order!

Tip #1 – When ordering any product for the first time that you are unsure about, make sure you look for free returns! Sometimes the price of the product is less than the cost to return it. BUT if they offer both free shipping + free returns, then you are not out any extra cash! Plus, the returns are so simple these days…in some cases you don’t even have to print a return label!

Tip #2 – Reviews are everything! Buy at your own risk when there are only a few reviews. Now, every product must get their start somewhere, but sometimes that is a red flag. Also be aware of 100 reviews where they are all 5-stars. Sometimes those reviews are inflated a little. Look for Amazon’s “verified buyer” tags as these are authentic shoppers. Plus, reviews are a great way to gauge sizing adjustments. People are all too willing to give both praise and criticism, but it is especially important if you are unsure of which size to order.

Tip #3 – Always check ship by dates! Some products might be available through Prime in some sizes, but when you click on a different size, it is suddenly not able to ship until a month later when the season may be close to passing.

Tip #4 – Buying in bulk. Say you are looking for something for a bridesmaid group…..or a birthday party favor. You can sometimes reach out directly to the manufacturer through Amazon, and they will give you a discount for a bulk order.

I had so much fun over the last year purchasing and testing out items from the fashion side of Amazon and am pleased to share that I kept almost all of the items….most were under $30 and were a super fun and economical choice! Plus, most of the quality was really great! Chan loves to buy more from the beauty and gadget side of Amazon! Together, we are sharing our favorite picks with you here!
